The example defines an object (dataset, tranfer buffer) with three dimensions. Be aware that as the number of dimensions increases, the the total size of the object increases exponentially.

VFD

- is an HDF5 file driver specifier. Valid values are:

sec2, stdio, core, split, multi, family, direct

Dimension access order:

Data access starts at the cardinal origin of the dataset using the transfer buffer. The next access occurs on a dataset region next to the previous one. For a multidimensional dataset, there are several directions as to where to proceed. This can be specified in the dimension access order. For example, -r 1,2 states that the tool should traverse dimension 1 first, and then dimension 2.
